“If one of our citizens feels they're being stopped unjustly than it's something we need to take very, very seriously and we do,” Vasquez said.

With so many questions about exactly what happened between Brown and Officer Darren Wilson, the Ferguson police officer involved in the incident, there are new calls for police officers to wear body cameras.

Seventy-five SDPD officers already do with plans in the works to outfit all uniformed personnel in the future.

At Sunday’s rally, Bayview Baptist Church Senior Pastor Terry Brooks said citizens and police officers both must recognize the good in the other.

“Not everybody that looks like me is a gang banger drug dealer, up to no good,” said Brooks.

“We have to realize while we want them to stop doing things that make us feel uncomfortable how many times they've protected us from things that could have put us in harm's way,” he added.

Brooks called for sensitivity training for officers tailored to the communities they patrol.
